Due to the strong solvent smell, hazards, and inadequate corrosion protection of the solvent-based paint they were using, a refrigerator coil manufacturer decided to switch to VpCI®-386. They kept this water-based paint in their dip tank, circulating the product to keep it mixed and covering the tank when not dipping the coils. As a result, the manufacturer was able to reduce their VOCs while also achieving superior corrosion protection.

A Croatian overpass needed corrosion protection and a better appearance. The concrete surface was therefore cleaned and dried before workers applied a solution of MCI®-2020 Powder by brush and left it to dry for two days. The final step was to apply MCI® Architectural Coating (tinted grey) for additional protection and an improved appearance in the natural landscape.
